They say it’s your Birthday!

Everyone loves to celebrate their birthday. You can bring a smile to the face of your friends, family, clients, and customers by sending them an email on their birthday. In this 13-minute tutorial, I describe how this process works. Let me know if you have any questions – Albert Kaufman – albert@albertideation.com

You can also join my birthday list, here. Don’t forget to fill out the birth date field!

Happy Birthday,

Albert

Also, Jackie Lawson’s cards are worth the annual fee which is very low.

Or, support the World Wildlife Fund via their fun, free service.

Send Out Cards

Send Out Cards – You’ve Got Mail!

4.3.2021 Update: I am no longer using this service. I do think that sending mail is a good idea, but SOC’s website is terrible and their leader is too into evangelical christianity for me.

From my newsletter of 6.5.17 – enjoy

I’m excited to announce a new way to reach your friends, family, donors, prospects and customers: Send Out Cards!

There’s a power in using marketing channels that are less busy. Direct mail via Send Out Cards is one of them. You know how great it is to get a card or letter in the mail – well, imagine how good someone you send a birthday note/thank you for assistance/referral, etc. will feel – fantastic! The cool thing about Send Out Cards is how easy it is to use – everything is automated – you can send out a thank you card (which a photo printed on the card!) in one minute. No fussing with stamps and envelopes – that’s done for you.

The possibilities are endless: Mail drip campaigns; schedule mail to go out in the future; adding gifts to your cards like delicious brownies; using a variety of formats (postcards/cards, etc.) and so much more!

I’ve sent out 8 cards so far (and I’m having a blast with it!). I look forward to using this service for the rest of my life. Have a look and see what you think. Questions, let me know.

I hope you’re having a great Spring => Summer. I’m available to help you with your marketing – just send me a note or give a call.

Take care,

Albert Kaufman, Albertideation
